For discrete integer values, I would recommend a paint (label) file rather than using a metric file, which is acontinuous-valued file type. Paint files let you set the color for each integer independently. Unfortunately, I haven't dealt with paint files much, but this other post may help if it is the result of mapping volume to surface:
http://brainvis.wustl.edu/pipermail/caret-users/2015-June/006290.html In connectome workbench (which is effectively caret 7), there is a command to make a label file from a metric file, but I'm not sure if there is a way to do this in caret5.
